FC: A Struggle of Perseverance

1: Walter Lee Younger though a strong man was struggling to support his family. With his father recently passing away he is left with the responsibility of looking over his family. Unfortunately he finds it hard to to reach his dream of wealth.

2: "Families are like fudge ... mostly sweet with a few nuts." | Walter has ideas of investing into something that he is confident is going to make him a lot of money to support his family. Walter's steady income was not enough to invest in the ideas he had that he thought were going to help his family get out of financial depression.

3: MAKING MEMORIES

4: "Harlem" What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore - And then run? Does it stink like rotten meat? Or crust and sugar over - like a syrupy sweet? Maybe it just sags like a heavy load. Or does it explode? | Langston Hughes, 1951

5: LIVE WELL LAUGH OFTEN LOVE MUCH | 1. The message is asking what happens when a dream is put off or delayed. 2. Sometimes it can be hard to pursue a dream and therefor it is put off and forgotten about. 3. He did that because the poem reflects the dreams and struggles of the family portrayed in the book. 4. The poem is put off and will not be pursued because it is delayed.

6: LIVE WELL LAUGH OFTEN LOVE MUCH | I aspire to be an entertainer of some sort. One of my goals is to reach my maximum potential in life. I understand that it is a tedious journey to get to the top, but it is something I am passionate about and I refuse to let anything stand in my way.

7: I am most gracious that you took the time out to read my book. I sincerely hope it was enjoyable for you. As you are reflecting on this material, I would like for you to take something with you, "A dream is only as big you you allow it to be."
